Strikið.

Perched on the fifth floor, Strikið offers what is arguably the best vantage point in Akureyri. Its wraparound terrace provides a panoramic look at the Eyjafjörður fjord and the surrounding mountains, making it a prime spot for sunset watching or catching the northern lights during dinner. The kitchen leans into a modern, global approach, successfully blending traditional Icelandic ingredients with international influences. You’ll find everything from fresh sushi and langoustine to Scandinavian small plates designed for sharing. The interior is polished and stylish without feeling stiff, striking a balance that works for a casual afternoon happy hour or a formal evening meal. On clear days, the expansive outdoor seating area is the main draw, accommodating a lively crowd looking to pair cocktails with the view.
